INGLEWOOD, Los Angeles County — The city’s emergency preparedness guidance identifies several municipal buildings and recreation facilities as possible cooling resources during high heat, including libraries, parks and the senior center.

Listed locations include the Inglewood Main Library at 101 W. Manchester Boulevard (310-412-5380), Crenshaw Library at 11141 S. Crenshaw Boulevard (310-412-5403), Darby Park at 3400 W. Arbor Vitae Street (310-412-5391) and Rogers Park at 400 W. Beach Avenue (310-412-5504).

Confirm conditions before arriving

The city also lists a community center and the Inglewood Senior Center as resources. Hours vary by location, day of the week and holidays. A facility included on the city webpage may not be open at the time someone needs it, and a published list does not mean a heat emergency is active today.

During dangerously hot weather, residents should seek a reliably air-conditioned location, drink water regularly and check on vulnerable neighbors. In a medical emergency, call 911. Use the city’s latest emergency notices for activated facilities and opening times.
